Sorry, I was trying to make it less opaque but the setting foobar’d on me. You should pretty much see black text on white background for the main content for articles and posts now. CTRL+R should force a reload of cached components in most browsers.

Runaways season 2 was great when Nico uses her dark powers she gets the eyes like Kaecilius this ties the show to Dr Strange. A cool theory going around the Internet is that Groots real name is Tree and therefore Tales to Astonish #13 is not his first appearance anymore. Because Thor in Infinity War States he speaks Groot’s language in a scene and in a later scene introduces him to Captain America as Tree. Since no one else actually speaks the language and just kind of assumes what he means when he says I am Groot. Some people would say he called Rocket a rabbit so he called Groot a tree and it’s just a furthering of the Rocket joke, then why the whole scene explaining that Thor speaks the language? Why would he purposely wrongfully introduce him as Tree if he speaks the language?

I guess I don’t understand…why does his name matter when it comes to his first appearance? Are Groot and Tree he same organism physically? I don’t know much about GotG or Groot, so please forgive me is this is a stupid question.

I saw some images of a White Widow #1 ASM 300 swipe and a Spider-Man 1 swipe, but Im not seeing those covers on Midtown. Does anyone have any info on these Spidey Swipe covers fir White Widow #1? Are they kickstarter variants? Anyone? Bueller?

Nothing is jumping out at me. The only book I am contemplating is Isola 6. I finally got around to reading 1-5 and thought it was OK. I still see a lot of positive reviews but the spec has seemed to die down. Anyone else have thoughts on this book?

I am also preparing for the next local swap in Portland next month. My inventory is feeling a bit thin as it has been picked through and I am down to about 4 short boxes of keys and 4 short boxes of $1. I also have several boxes of sets which seem to not sell even though they are priced to sell. I may have to break the sets, price the keys and then dump the rest in the $1 boxes. Sets/runs seem to not sell in my area unless they are priced below the cost of the tpb. I may also need to thin out my pc which is now up to about a dozen short boxes.

PC pick ups:
Uncanny X-Men #121 (1st full appearance of Alpha Flight) NM condition-trying to go back and fill in few missing pieces to my Byrne Claremont run from #95-143. I’ve been re-reading this run and you forget how great this storyline is….

Snagged my pre-snowstorm pull today. The LCS was sold out of the Catwoman B cover, and it appears they didn’t receive Middlewest #3, either. Other than that, the DC and Marvel books were well represented. They seem to be going a bit lighter on non-DC and Marvel titles although they still carry a smattering of Image, IDW, Dark Horse, and a couple other companies, but I miss out on some of the hot indie titles.

if they’re all “errors” then none are errors, or it doesn’t matter. I’m going to hold for a while. If I had to pick a recent comic to gamble on holding for a better flipmlong term, it’s this one. Has too much going for it.

Like immortal hulk #7 the “red” captain America.

Speaking of which…has there ever been a Capt America / Red skull mashup? Come on, house of ideas!

To clarify, IH7 has a red captain a Erica in several frames…some people are advertising this as an error comic on eBay. Yes, it’s an error, but all copies have it and there is no recall. It will be corrected in subsequent reprints.

I wouldnt call the Harley issue an ‘error’ per se. The ‘error’ is in every book so the ‘error’ book doesn’t distinguish itself from any other book with the same cover. Its an editorial oversight, and Im sure it happens more often than you would think. None of the books with these clerical errors has ever been referred to as an ‘error’ book. Imo.

I’d say its an error if it gives credit to the wrong cover artist. Yes its not a rarity but it is by definition an error. Do the cover A’s say Cho is the artist? I honestly don’t know, but i’m asking bc if it does for all the books regardless of cover then yeah big editorial “error”, and makes it less of an issue, but if its distinct to just this cover then it does add something to the book. I’m just saying the awesome cover work, being a variant, plus the error “editorial definitely”, makes it a good book to flip.

Got most of the more available books this week but did manage to pick up a copy of Knights of the Golden Sun 3, but most of the other indie ones I wanted were gone by the time I got there. I spent most of my time flipping through the dollar bins and this is what I found: Secret Wars 3, 4, 5 ,6, 7, and 9, Where Creatures Roam 4, World’s Finest 230, Weird Worlds 9, and The Superman Family 166. All of the older books are at least a 7+ so I’m super happy with finds like that in the $1 bin.

I looked for Red Hood 30B, but notta. Will keep,an eye out…doesn’t seem to be heating up like the putri covers.

Speaking of which, Red Hood 25 is hitting $45 lately. I grabbed a copy bundled with some Mattina/putri covers a month ago for $25. I left it on the shelf when it came out and regretted it…glad I got it before it took off. Sold the other comics I got in that deal for basically what i paid for the lot!

No new pickups for me today just what I ordered last night, but I was looking through an old magazine box and I found found 5 different Nintendo Valiant comics I’ve been looking for, all are 9.8 candidates.

Any good pre-order deals on a set of Detective Comics #1000? M&M Comic Service is selling the bundle (11 books) for $65.93, but their shipping is about $14 which adds roughly a dollar per book to the cost.
